This role drives program execution across engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, quality, and operations teams to meet cost, schedule, and performance targets. The ideal candidate combines strong technical understanding of electronics manufacturing with excellent project leadership and communication skills.

  • Lead end-to-end manufacturing program management for new product introductions (NPI), mass production transitions, and product lifecycle improvements.
  • Develop and maintain program schedules, budgets, risk assessments, and status reports.
  • Drive cross-functional alignment across R&D, product engineering, manufacturing engineering, operations, procurement, and quality.
  • Ensure readiness of factories, tooling, test systems, and supply chain prior to build events and production ramp.
  • Own program schedules, deliverables, and performance metrics for assigned manufacturing projects.
  • Oversee readiness for pilot, EVT/DVT/PVT builds, and production ramp-up.
  • Work closely with Internal departments, customers and suppliers to ensure capability, capacity, and quality requirements are met.
  • Identify and resolve manufacturing issues, bottlenecks, and yield challenges to meet delivery and cost targets.

  • Facilitate program reviews, issue escalation, and decision-making forums.
  • Maintain documentation, action logs, and dashboards for program visibility.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Electrical, Mechanical, Industrial, Manufacturing, or related field).
  • 5+ years of experience in electronics manufacturing, NPI programs, or technical operations.
  • Proven track record managing complex, cross-functional programs in high-tech hardware or electronics.
  • Strong understanding of PCBAs, SMT processes, hardware test systems, reliability testing, and supply-chain/manufacturing processes.
  • Excellent communication, leadership, and stakeholder-management skills.
  • Ability to travel to manufacturing sites (domestic and international).
